Ms Chelsea Sterling

Clinical Mental Health Counselor

I'm passionate about working with LGBTQ+ and other adults to treat depression, anxiety, trauma and relationship issues. I'm a certified domestic violence counselor, trained in EMDR and have experience working with serious mental illness as well as outpatient therapy. I offer in person and virtual sessions.

About Me

I am passionate about helping LGBTQ+ and other adults. We can explore challenges like depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues together. As a certified domestic violence counsellor, I offer a secure space. My training in EMDR also supports processing difficult experiences. My goal is to help you find pathways to greater well-being. Sessions are available in-person or virtually, designed to suit your needs.

Approach

When you bring concerns about depression, anxiety, trauma or relationships, I focus on creating practical, steady steps that match your pace and priorities. In-person sessions in San Diego or virtual meetings in English are structured to feel focused but flexible, with space for immediate safety planning when needed. Sessions often mix trauma-processing tools like EMDR with problem-solving, emotional regulation and check-ins between appointments so progress carries into daily life. This approach tends to suit LGBTQ+ and other adults seeking thoughtful, grounded support.
